| SECURITY <SPC>, USERS, END MERGER TALKS | |
| Security Pacific Corp and | |
| <Users Inc>, a credit union data processing concern, said they | |
| have mutually agreed to withdraw from further merger | |
| negotiations. | |
| Users said that since it signed a letter of intent to merge | |
| with Security in November, it has received a strong show of | |
| support for continuing the credit union ownership of the | |
| company with credit unions committing themselves to purchase | |
| additional Users common. | |
| Users also said it is in the strongest financial position | |
| in its 24-year history. | |
